Downloads from TI web page
I have noticed that getting downloads from the TI web page (store) is a bit
perplexing.
Here is what happens when I try to get the newest TI-83Plus Graph Link software
using Internet Explorer 5.5.
link to www.ti.com/calc
Select Online Store
Again Select Online Store
Choose Country and Language
Select 83 Plus Software
Select TI-Graph Link software Version 2.0 for Windows (Free - Download Now)
Accept License Agreement
click to download ti83pusa.exe
A File Download dialogue box opens and I select Save this file to disk
Another File Download box opens temporarily
A Save As dialogue box opens indicating that I will be getting a file named
Instructions.htm This is not the file that I expect.
I have discovered that if, when the File Download box appears, I first select
the Open this file from current location option and then select Save this file
to disk I will get a Save As dialog box that indicates the correct file to be
downloaded.
This behavior occurs throughout the TI web pages. Non-TI web pages do not
exhibit this behavior when I do downloads. I wonder if this behavior is
intentional or just an error on the TI web page.
